In Experiment 1b, participants performed the peripheral target detection and manual tracking tasks concurrently.
One interpretation is that the central manual tracking task and the peripheral target detection task tapped into partially independent pools of information-processing resources (Wickens, 2002).
It is not known how electrical stimulation of central or peripheral target structures exerts its effects, although a neuronal functional block seems the most likely option.
Acyl CoA:monoacylglycerol acyltransferase-2 (MGAT2) has emerged as a potential peripheral target for the treatment of obesity and metabolic disorders.
When studying the lower urinary tract (LUT), it is often of interest to perform both urodynamic studies and retrogradely labeled neurons innervating the peripheral target organs.
2D shifts required to get the best gamma passing rates on the peripheral target regions were compared with the reported ones for the central target.
In contrast, antisaccades, saccades in opposite direction of a peripheral target, require more complex transformation processes due to the inversion of the spatial vector.
To identify factors from skin that induce CGRP, we developed a bioassay in which embryonic DRG neurons isolated before peripheral target contact in vivo are challenged in vitro with specific factors.
Here, we used a rapid event-related fMRI design in three age groups (8 12, 13 17, 18 25 years) who were instructed to execute either a prosaccade (look toward peripheral target) or an antisaccade (look away from target) task.
The peripheral target was a five-pointed star enclosed within a circle, and the distractors were white line-drawings of squares isoluminant with the peripheral target.
After the center target disappeared and a peripheral target appeared, the monkey had to move the cursor to the peripheral target and keep inside the target until it received a fruit-juice reward.
